Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing
@wharfy Will be auditioning an Audio Research CD6SE this coming weekend. Curious how you were able to secure an audition.  I was under the impression that the CD6SE was discontinued two or three years ago after a two-year run because Phillips (...

They know we will pay anything they can think of
The fact that much, if not most, audio gear sells for just a little more than half the original price on the used market after a couple of years somehow factors into the conversation. Is the loss of value due to technological improvements of newe... 
High Fidelity Cables?
@tranchautuan  Just curious if you had a chance to talk with Schultz regarding the $3,000+ that you mentioned he owes you?  
Intg Amps: Hegel 590 vs NAD M33 Masters vs Gryphon Diablo 120
@bigtwin I purchased the H590 from an original owner a few years back.  You would never have known it wasn’t brand new when I received it.  As quality amps are built to last for decades, paying 50% or more extra just to get the "new car smell" ... 
Resolving CD Transports Crowd Sourcing
I'd consider waiting until all the bugs are worked out of the new Schiit transport and for a couple of reviews.  I have only owned two lesser priced Schiit products, the SYS and Lokius, but like their overall business model.  
High Fidelity Cables?
@tranchautuan @ozzy I lost around 3k+ usd (topup money) and my original HFC Ultimate Reference RCA pair when I got a deal to send my cable to HFC for upgrade. Happy some still raise it up I hope that this Rick dude pays back tranchautuan, e... 
Digital input amp
@tvrgeek  I see one here just can't stop insulting people. Sigh.  Nobody can learn anything that way.  Actually @tvrgeek, here's a heads up.  Most of us here have a fairly thick skin.  But what would you think about someone who starts a thread... 
Is there a "Help" Thread?
@tonydennison I think you should just take a second and email A’gon through their communications portal and let them take care of you.  
Is there a "Help" Thread?
Actually, I have had fast and great success just using the help request function of this site.  Pretty much the opposite experience as above.  
Ferrofluid
@tattooedtrackman  I will defer to those with more experience.  But if it was me and I did not notice anything that sounds wrong, as in your case, I wouldn't even think one thought of messing with my crossovers. I would just sit back and enjoy yo... 
Ferrofluid
Better yet, see if you can talk with B & W about the advisability of updating the crossovers or not.   
Ferrofluid
There is no set rule regarding how long ferrofluid lasts.  I have read 10-15 years is typical. Chances are your ferrofluid is still basically still ok and you will hear little or no difference after having it changed, but who knows.  My speakers ... 
Ferrofluid
I have changed the ferrofluid in my tweeters.  The ease or difficulty in doing so depends entirely on how hard or easy it is to dissemble the tweeters.  It turns out in my case it was easy to dissemble to tweeter to be able to get to the channel w...
